unfair prejudice
The lecturer has spent a significant amount of time explaining that "unfair" and "prejudice" have to be interpreted separately.
However, I really can’t tell the difference… would there be just unfair (sounds ok to me) and fair prejudice? How can one prejudices another one fairly? If there is no definition, how could the court determine whether it is unfair AND is prejudicial?

This topic is a bit “technical” to me.
Maybe take a scenario, the lecturer always gives the highest mark to Lucia no matter what(I know she is smart anyway :p). Then, the class has a FAIR prejudice against him because the class KNOWS him well. However, if I make the same accusation against him simply based on my FEELING, would this be UNFAIR judgement?

my goodness…. your example is exactly the same as the one our lecturer used… (of course he didn’t say ME)!! But I still don’t think that is fair… :p

hm…..the truth is I time travelled to tell your lecturer about that example before your class. But I don’t know why he did not use “YOU” as the example law!
